MossBear, in This high speed train could be the first to be powered entirely by renewable energy

I saw the source was Euronews and my first thought was, “I wish we could have this in America.” And what do you know? It is here! Not surprised that California is leading the way. I hope this develops more broadly over time. We desperately need a modern rail system.

dreikelvin,

Same over here in europe. The train system we have over here is anything but perfect. Every country or region still has different standards, requiring a change if wheels, connectors and other parts on the route of a long-distance train. This costs a lot of money too. Train tickets are soaring. Train routes are clogged. Short distance trains are partly being closed, shortened or showing their age. Despite an increase of flight ticket prices, people still find flying more compelling than travelling by train.

Still, night trains are somewhat having a little revival right now.

I really hope we can get some fresh new wind and new tech. It is time our Transport Tycoon enters the future era ;)

Alteon, in Guaranteed Income Programs Are Uplifting Oppressed Communities Across the US

Sounds like socialism…you know, the thing that all these oppressed communities are frothing at the mouth to prevent.

JackGreenEarth, in Free college in Colorado? It’s covered if you’re interested in teaching, firefighting, law enforcement, construction or forestry

Limited, but at least things are moving in the right direction.

Acab

WookieMunster,

All colleges are bad?

STUPIDVIPGUY,

True but encouraging law enforcement with an actual college education is definitely a step in the right direction

Athena5898,

is that somehow going to get rid of the cult-like behavior that takes critical thinking and turns it to mush? (Google Cop Gans LAPD) Also, police recruitment around the nation is thankfully finally going down after 2020 and people understand that police = murder goon squad and if you actually want to do something to help people there is a plethora of other jobs that do what police are propagandized as. This is no different then when they send the army recruitment to low income schools in poor areas and promise them riches for their lives and mental health. If it seems like it's all you got, it's a good way to force people to do shit they wouldn't want to do. The other shit is great, just get the fucking cop crap out of it.

Charliebeans, in Residents Raise 15k for Beloved Milkman–Retired But Not Due His Pension for a Year

Is this really good news? Sure, nice local community but why can he not get his pension?

nieceandtows, in Party Drug Ketamine Can Stop Severe Depression–Researcher Wants Funding for the ‘Powerful Treatment’

I guess it’s a party drug for a reason

Sivar, in Australia offers MDMA drug therapy for PTSD, a world first

When it costs 17.000 instead of it being legalized for general use, you know it’s not for the good of the people.

One can only hold that this step allows for more research to prove benefits, and thereby create political pressure to legalize it and make it available at low cost.

Sheltac, in Deforestation Fell 26% in Colombian Amazon Last Year

I read this as “defenestration” and was quite confused for a moment there.

mojo, in Party Drug Ketamine Can Stop Severe Depression–Researcher Wants Funding for the ‘Powerful Treatment’

This might be able to help me, but I’m very, very skeptical. I’d only try it under a doctor.

aidenxy,

My sister's mother-in-law actually takes Ketamine. She was diagnosed as clinically depressed to the point of being very suicidal. It seems to work for her.
